The Artsy Fartsy Show is a weekly arts magazine radio program hosted on WBAI 99.5FM in New York City.[1] It is hosted by Barika Edwards[2] and covers discussion topics on various art topics to a youth audience.[1] Previous guests have included Moxie Street Picture Shows[3] and Ben Vereen.[4]

The show has a regular "Battle of the Bands" segment, which is sponsored by a number of organisations in New York, including the Village Voice.[5][6]

The show is still being broadcast despite WBAI laying off a large number of staff in August 2013.[7]
